Hi All,
Not sure where we stand with the first release but I think we should
take into account the jboss version we use before releasing.
We currently deploy on jboss as 5, but we started working on
deployment
on jboss as 7.
Releasing on AS 5 and then moving to AS 7 might require some upgrade
path and it is a time consuming task to do that.
Since we already started working on the deployment on jboss AS 7, I
think it might worth holding back first 'formal' release until it is
done. It will help us avoiding upgrade support and get all the
benefits
of using as7 (startup time, memory/cpu foot-print etc.) - get better
reviews?
Please note that JBoss AS 5 has not been updated with any async security patches since it
was released in 2009. There are multiple known high impact security flaws that affect it.
I would prefer we only ship against AS 7, as it incorporates fixes for these flaws.
David
